  1. Ans 1) 20 Tons of cotton wool as it is volumetric cargo.
    Ans 2) Towards side which is away from the door.
    Ans 3) Customs one.
    Ans 4) Multi Modal is for all modes of transport regardless of the mode. Through Bill of lading is for only for one mode of transport this is for getting past the customs only. Inter-modal is usually for two different modes of transport.
    Ans 5) Emergency Medical Service and Medical First Aid Guide
